Raymond Bisha introduces the most recent instalment within the Capriccio label’s exploration of hardly ever carried out or recorded symphonic works by Miklós Rózsa, outlining his maturation not solely into probably the most profitable movie composers of all time, but in addition the creator of equally advantageous live performance works. The album’s programme includes his Rhapsody for Cello, through which the younger composer discovered his true fashion; the Notturno Ungherese (“a nostalgic night time piece, paying homage to the reminiscences of my childhood in Hungary”); and the late Sinfonia concertante for violin and cello, a fiendishly tough work that’s amongst Rózsa’s most interesting, least filmic live performance works, and considered one of his most underrated.
